Historic Lancaster shoe factory reborn as 60-unit luxury apartment complex

LANCASTER − The former Fairfield Shoe Company building at 219 N. Columbus St. is no longer just sitting and deteriorating. It is now a 60-unit luxury apartment complex with the retail set to open later on the first floor. The building is now called The Shumaker because of its past as a shoe factory and city's German history. It also once housed the Essex Wire Company. It sat vacant for about 20 years before Urban Restorations converted it into the apartment building loaded with amenities. The second- and third-floor residential units are complete, so work is now focused on making the ground floor suitable for commercial tenants. The project cost is around $20 million or so. Some history The building's last occupant was Fairfield Industries, then a division of the Fairfield County Board of Developmental Disabilities. It moved out of the building in 2005 and the building had stood vacant until the renovation started in 2023. The building dates to between 1900 and 1910 when it was originally the Fairfield Shoe Company. The Essex Wire Company bought it in 1947. Urban Restorations President Bob Schilling previously said the building's industrial look will be built into the renovation, which it was.

Golf in Coshocton, Ohio: 2 Rounds, 2 Nights & More Charm Than You’d Expect
